Her father died before the war. She herself was deported with her mother and her brother's wife. Her other brother was in America at that time. It took them months until they reached Nissibin. On the way to this town a Kurd took Mariam to his village and violated her when she was about ten years old. Mariam was living all these years with the Kurd. Lately she could flee to Kamishli where she met one of our agents who sent her over Hassitshe, Deir-el-Zor to us. During her flight she was bitten by a dog, apparently mad. 

She was in a hopeless condition on her arrival and she died in the Altounyan hospital.

Left our care: December 19, 1927. Died.
